What if you zig when you should've zagged? That also assumes you are only facing one other archer. What happens when you have multiple archers shooting at you from different angles?

On a 1 vs 1 vs archer weaving in and out to avoid shots while charging is a good tactic...if you have a horse. If you're on foot a good archer can still easily kite you despite the removal of jump shooting. Back when jump shooting was still around it was even more impossible to reach a properly kitting my old friendcher.
